It's always fun to hear from the owners, and Lorraine will be there every weekend of Maple Days to chat with our visitors.

Adironjack: a true taste of place.
Applejack brandy has been traditionally made in the Eastern United States, specifically the Hudson Valley in New York for over 200 years. 🍎
With Adironjack’s roots in the foothills of the Adirondacks, this cheese is a true taste of place for New York State.
This cheese is our creamiest cow’s milk triple crème. Floral apple notes bring out the natural grassy flavors of our Jersey cow milk, while the creaminess developed in our aging process is accentuated by the alcohol in the brandy.🐄
Grab your own piece of Adironjack this weekend and grab a bite to eat in our tavern!
Store Hours: 10a-4p / Tavern Hours: 11a-4p
